Generational Change in Chinese ICT Entrepreneurs and Their Business Models（NAKAGAWA） Generational Change in Chinese ICT Entrepreneurs and their Business Models（NAKAGAWA） Article Generational Change in Chinese ICT Entrepreneurs and their Business Models: A Review of A. Saxenian’s Brain Circulation Model Ryoji NAKAGAWA Summary：China has already become one of the biggest ICT manufacturing countries in the world. Major factors in Rapid Growth of Chinese ICT Industry are a worldwide division of PC production, new Chinese government policy, market-oriented business strategy of Chinese PC manufacturers, transfer to China of Taiwanese contract manufacturers’ production base, increase in highly skilled human resources, emergence of ICT entrepreneurs, and role of overseas returnees. This article focuses on the latter factor, especially with reference to the role of overseas returnees. In 2006, AnnaLee Saxenian published the New Argonauts, which was based on the “brain circulation” model and at the same time asserted that the connection between Silicon Valley and Hsinchu, the ICT center of Taiwan, had already extended to Shanghai in China. The question of whether this brain circulation model is applicable to the Chinese ICT industry is the main subject of this article. This article concluded that the contribution of returnees must be analyzed from three aspects, that is, generation, field and business model and that Saxenian’s assertion is very important but exaggerated a little bit. Key Words:China, ICT ,entrepreneurs, AnnaLee Saxenian ,brain circulation, returnees 1. Rapid Growth of Chinese ICT Industry When the Chinese government began Figure 1 Smile Curve its Reform and Opening Policy in 1978, Chinese GDP per capita was less than Value added Development of prototype High $400. In 1980, the number of telephone After-sales services Parts production subscribers per 100 inhabitants in China Module parts production Sales was only 0.63, and in 1983 the development of machinery compatible with the IBM PC Assermbling had only just started. Under a market- Operation Low oriented and outward-looking policy, process however, China achieved amazingly rapid Upstream Downstream and continuous economic development, so Source: Modified Shih[1996], p.239 Figure 6 （ 219 ） 57 立命館国際研究 23-2，October 2010 that its GDP per capita reached $3,678 in 2009. China has already become one of the biggest ICT manufacturing countries in the world. In 2008, of the world’s PCs, around 40%, or 136 million units, were made in China. As the PC factory of the world, China exported 80% of these, but 20% were sold to the Chinese market, which has also become one of the biggest markets in the world, around three times the size of the Japanese PC market. Lenovo, the top Chinese PC manufacturer, merged with IBM’s PC Division in 2005 and became the world’s third largest PC manufacturer (dropping to fourth, however, after the takeover of Gateway by Acer). As of June 2010, China has 805.3 million mobile phone subscribers, or around 16% of the world’s total and around eight times as many as Japan. 2. Factors in Rapid Growth of Chinese ICT Industry (1) Global background In 1981, IBM decided to enter the PC market and exchanged its previous closed strategy for an open strategy. To establish a PC standard, IBM adopted an open-spec strategy and sought to cultivate IBM-compatible manufacturers. The company outsourced the manufacture of its CPU and OS to Intel and Microsoft and used contract manufacturers in Taiwan. As a result, a worldwide division of PC production came into being. Under this division of production, countries with lower labor costs have been able to win a concentration of the assembly process and increase sales. As Stan Shih’s smile curve theory illustrated, the added value in this process is less than that in the upstream and downstream processes. (2) New Chinese government policy Until 1970, the Chinese government made much of independent computer development, but under the global conditions outlined above, it adopted a new policy. In 1983, it began a project aimed at developing machinery compatible with the IBM PC, and in 1985 it adopted a new policy as part of the 7th five-year plan. The new policy emphasized the utilization of mainframe computers and the production of PCs and peripheral products. As for telecommunications, the Chinese government introduced a competitive policy in 1993 to replace the state-monopoly system. The resulting competition between China Telecom, the previous monopoly carrier and China Unicom, a newly set-up carrier, promoted rapid increase in the number of mobile phone subscribers. (3) Market-oriented business strategy Under the business and political circumstances outlined above, major PC manufacturers such as LENOVO adopted a market-oriented business strategy based on the so-called Wintel technology. This market-oriented business strategy contributed to the rapid growth of the PC industry in China. (4) Transfer to China of Taiwanese contract manufacturers’ production base Taiwanese contract manufacturers (Quanta, Inventec, Compal, Wistron, and so on) 58 （ 220 ） Generational Change in Chinese ICT Entrepreneurs and their Business Models（NAKAGAWA） transferred their production base to China to save labor costs under the Chinese government’s deregulation of Taiwanese investment in China. (5) Increase in highly skilled human resources, emergence of ICT entrepreneurs, and role of overseas returnees In 1979, China reintroduced a common university entrance examination and, as economic development progressed, the rate of university entrance rose rapidly (now more than 20%). This increase provided highly skilled human resources to the ICT industry. Moreover, many highly skilled individuals set up their own company and acted as entrepreneurs as defined by Schumpeter. In the 1990s, a number of highly skilled individuals who had traveled overseas for education or career reasons started to return to China because they recognized business opportunities in their motherland. These returnees brought back to China advanced technology and, what was even more essential for the Chinese ICT industry, an advanced business model. This article focuses on the latter factor, especially with reference to the role of overseas returnees. Table 1 Rate of return to China of students studying overseas Cumulative number of students Cumulative number of Year studying overseas returnees Rate of return (%) (10 thousands) (10 thousands) 1996 27.0 8.9 32.9 1997 29.6 9.6 32.4 1998 30.2 9.9 32.7 1999 32.0 11.2 35.0 2000 34.0 13.0 38.2 2001 46.0 13.5 29.3 2002 58.5 15.3 26.2 2003 70.0 17.8 25.4 2004 81.4 19.8 24.3 2005 93.3 23.3 24.9 2006 106.7 27.5 25.8 Source: Wang [2007] p.7 3. A. Saxenian’s “Brain Circulation” Model In Regional Advantage, published in 1994, AnnaLee Saxenian analyzed the reason why Silicon Valley succeeded but the R128 area, which flourished as an ICT center until the 1990s, failed. She concluded that the flexible network of Silicon Valley played the key role in its rapid growth in good times and its recovery from bad times. Afterward, Saxenian extended her model worldwide and focused attention on the new phenomenon of the global （ 221 ） 59 立命館国際研究 23-2，October 2010 movement of highly skilled human resources, which consists of a return to the motherland of the highly skilled individuals who had come to the US, and above all Silicon Valley, in the so-called “brain drain”. Saxenian called this new movement “brain circulation” and asserted that this brain circulation had contributed to the development of the ICT industry in Taiwan and India. In 2006, Saxenian published the New Argonauts, which was based on the “brain circulation” model and at the same time asserted that the connection between Silicon Valley and Hsinchu, the ICT center of Taiwan, had already extended to Shanghai in China. The question of whether this brain circulation model is applicable to the Chinese ICT industry is the main subject of the present research paper. 4. Research Method Nakagawa [2001], [2008], [2009], [2010a], [2010b], [2010c], [2010d] used a method consisting of three types resulting in nine cells; that is: Chinese ICT entrepreneurs were divided into three generations and three types: domestic careerists, returnees and foreigners (including Taiwanese). Moreover, according to career path and stock holdings, they were characterized as owner type (“O”), internally promoted management type (“M”) or professional management type (“P”). As an exceptional type, entrepreneurs in Chinese telecommunication carriers were characterized as “bureaucrat entrepreneurs” (“B”). 5. Three Generations of ICT Entrepreneurs in China ICT entrepreneurs in China can be divided into three generations. The first generation, who were mainly born in the 1930s and 1940s and most active in the 1980s and 1990s, contributed to reorganizing state-owned enterprises into market- oriented business entities. Most of them did not have access to venture capital and could not earn large sums from listing their companies on the stockmarket. They were mainly motivated by reorganization itself and are now gradually retiring. The second generation was mainly born in the 1950s and the first half of the 1960s, studied technology at university and distinguished themselves in business circles in the 1990s. They either founded their own companies or succeeded to management positions occupied by members of the first generation. The former group did not generally have access to venture capital but earned large sums of money through stockmarket listing. The latter group did not establish their own companies but were simply internally promoted and took over management positions from the first generation. However, their business and social circumstances were utterly different from those of the first generation. They were professionalized, earned high salaries, and some of them took over as owners while others were later head-hunted as management professionals. The third generation was mainly born in the second half of the 1960s and the 1970s.

  • Beijing Courts Rule for Defendants in Two Abuse-Of-Dominance Cases
    Alert Memo BRUSSELS AND HONG KONG, JANUARY 8, 2010 Beijing Courts Rule For Defendants in Two Abuse-of-Dominance Cases Beijing courts recently ruled for defendants in two abuse-of-dominance cases filed under China’s Anti-Monopoly Law (the “AML”): • On December 18, 2009, Beijing’s No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court ruled for Baidu, a Chinese Internet search company, in a case brought by Tangshan Renren Information Services Co. (“Renren”), which operates a medical consulting services website. Renren claimed that Baidu used its dominant position to limit access to Renren’s website in violation of the AML. The Court found that Renren failed to prove that Baidu held a dominant position. The court went on to comment that, in any case, Baidu’s conduct was not discriminatory or coercive and that its conduct was legitimate. • On December 24, 2009, Beijing’s No. 2 Intermediate People’s Court reportedly ruled for China Netcom’s Beijing Branch in a case brought by Mr. Li Fangping over China Netcom’s alleged discriminatory treatment of customers who are not permanent Beijing residents. Again, the court found that the plaintiff failed to meet its burden of showing that the defendant had a dominant position and commented that the defendant’s conduct was legitimate. The two new decisions follow an October 23, 2009 decision by Shanghai’s No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court in favor of defendants Shanda Interactive Entertainment Ltd. and Shanghai Xuanting Entertainment Co., Ltd (“Shanda”). 1 These decisions illustrate the significant role played by private litigation in the development of Chinese antitrust law applicable to unilateral conduct.
